chills

After Lu Huaiyuan hurriedly stuffed the cold bun into his belly, the two went to the pool where the accident happened.All the stones and trees in the Hejia Mountain Villa have been landscaped by everyone. In addition to looking pleasing to the eye, it also implies a Fengshui pattern.The pool where the accident happened was not too big, and the location was remote. There was a small rockery in the middle, and a stone statue of a little monkey holding a peach was placed on the rockery, which was quite childish.

The news of the accident here has already spread, surrounded by many disciples of the immortal sect, whispering to each other, a woman was kneeling by the pool, crying non-stop, almost to the point of dying.

Lu Huaiyuan pushed aside the crowd, and finally squeezed to the side of Shen Lin.His unreliable master had a rare serious face, and looked at the dead man on the ground without saying a word.

Lu Huaiyuan followed Shen Lin's gaze and was shocked.

That thing... No wonder Shen Huaiyu said it was a "skeleton".

It was hard to see that the pile of things on the ground was originally a person, but at first glance it looked like a pile of broken bones with flesh and blood attached.The flesh and blood had been soaked in the pool water, and it looked very disgusting. The clear water in the pool was also muddy and rusty now.

Lu Huaiyuan looked away, feeling like he would throw up if he took another look.

Shen Huaiyu came to him at some point, and whispered in his ear, "What do you think?"

Lu Huaiyuan turned around and said in a low voice, "Miss Hong Yuan."

They met a senior named Hua Jin during their journey, and she told the two teenagers a story that she also heard.There is a girl named Hong Yuan in Fengyuechang, who has been missing for a long time and no one is seen. Originally, the old bustard gave up on finding her, but finally found her under a red embroidered couch. The bone fragments that couldn't even be pieced together in human form.Because of this incident, people in the small town panicked for a while.

Someone nearby asked quietly what was going on, and someone told that person that the person kneeling and weeping bitterly was Lan Xuan, the eldest daughter of the Lan family in Youzhou, and that the one turned into a handful of flesh and bones was her younger brother Lanxi.Lan Xuan loved her younger brother a lot when she was young, and overnight, her clever and cute younger brother became like this. She couldn't accept it, and she was immersed in endless grief and couldn't extricate herself.

He Hongguang half-kneeled beside her, while comforting her, he asked his servants to inform He Jing immediately.Seeing him here, Shen Huaiyu was a little surprised: this person is simply a brick of the He family, he can be filled wherever it is needed, and it is estimated that many direct disciples do not do as much as him.

Lu Huaiyuan asked: "Aren't you going to be in the ring today?"

Shen Huaiyu said: "When something like this happens, who will care about the ring?"

Indeed, this person just disappeared, and he is still in the He family's territory. The He family must give an explanation no matter what—whether it is to find the murderer or take responsibility for himself, in short, this matter must be resolved by the He family. of.However, judging by He Hongguang's expression, he was completely ignorant of the matter, so he had no choice but to appease Lan Xuan first, and then ask someone to investigate.

Lan Xuan was crying so hard, her face was full of tears and her eyes were swollen.He Hongguang felt that one head was two big, and he couldn't do anything to comfort him.

The comments from the onlookers penetrated into Lu Huaiyuan's ears: "Oh... this death is too tragic..."

Lu Huaiyuan sneered, and said to Shen Huaiyu, "That thing has really good teeth."

Ordinary demon cannibals are all cannibals, so there are not many people who have eaten the bones of their belts.These disciples of the fairy family were carefully cultivated by the family since they were young, and some of them were not talented enough, so they forced to use various elixir to feed a decent talent. Of course, it is the best for those demon cultivators, but these immortal disciples often have swords and magic weapons at their side, so it is not easy to feed on them.To be able to gnaw on that kid from the Lan family under such circumstances is probably not an ordinary thing, and the He family has gotten into big trouble this time.

"This, this...!" Someone in the crowd suddenly said, "This death...have I seen it before?"

Everyone's eyes focused on the man, and the man said timidly, "...a fisherman disappeared from my hometown. When everyone found him, it was just a handful of broken bones."

"That said, I seem to have heard that there was a murder case in Yongcheng. That person died in such a manner. At first I thought he was bitten by a ferocious beast..."

Shen Huaiyu looked solemn: "What's going on? This kind of thing happens everywhere?"

Everyone was discussing for a while, He Hongguang had no choice but to stand up and comfort everyone with the other He family servants, but no matter what he said, he couldn't suppress the fear in everyone's heart.

"I heard that the He family's villa needs to break three barriers if it wants to invade from the outside. Such a thing happened in such a safe place, please give us an explanation from the He family!" Someone shouted loudly.

Everyone responded one after another, but He Hongguang himself was not good at words, and he didn't know how to deal with this situation.He stood in the crowd as if he didn't hear what people were saying at all, calm and silent.

"Everyone, please listen to me!" An unfamiliar voice came from outside the crowd, and everyone turned around following the sound, only to see a middle-aged man in a golden robe of the He family walking over surrounded by several servants. It was He Jing who arrived late.

He stopped, paused, and continued: "This incident happened in my He family's territory. The He family will definitely give this little friend Lan an explanation."

Someone shouted: "What if you can't find that monster? How can you give me an explanation?"

He Jing's face was not very good-looking: "...the He family disciple who is in charge of this matter, if he can't find out that monster, he will commit suicide and apologize."

Everyone fell silent.You know, the He family is the most protective of the calf. He Jing said that, and he really made up his mind to find that thing out.After all, the grand ceremony held by the He family with all their efforts could not be ruined just because of this matter.

"Hong Guang!" He Jing said in a deep voice.

"The disciple is here." He Hongguang nodded respectfully.

"You investigate this matter." He Jing said.

Lu Huaiyuan lowered his voice and said to Shen Huaiyu: "This man is really smart. If he really can't find out, the He family only needs to find a disciple who is brought in from the outer sect. This is a good deal."

Without squinting, Shen Huaiyu said softly, "Stop talking."

He Hongguang nodded and stepped aside.He Jing asked someone to collect Lanxi's pile of bloody and broken bones, sent Lan Xuan back to the small courtyard to recuperate, and dismissed all the disciples around here.

Shui Chizi didn't deal with it, and threw it to He Hongguang as a clue.Lu Huaiyuan felt sick when he saw the pool of blood. He didn't expect He Hongguang to stand by the water and observe calmly for a long time.

Shen Huaiyu tugged at Lu Huaiyuan and pulled him away.Because of this incident, the arena fight on the school grounds had to be stopped, but He Hongguang couldn't rest, and had to investigate the cause of Lanxi's death.He Jing arranged guards everywhere, and those who came to participate in the ceremony were not allowed to leave the villa for the time being, and rested in their own small courtyards.

Shen Huaiyu asked: "What do you think?"

Lu Huaiyuan said: "Recently this has happened frequently in various places, which is not normal. Do you still remember those cockroaches?"

Shen Huaiyu nodded: "I remember."

"That thing has appeared quite frequently recently," Lu Huaiyuan paused, "...I also saw it in the villa. Someone has that thing attached to their body."

Shen Huaiyu asked: "You mean... Xingyue Pavilion? Xingyue Pavilion uses scorpions to eat people... Someone in Xingyue Pavilion has become a demon?"

Lu Huaiyuan bowed his head: "At that time in Shiquan Town earlier, that thing swallowed the child whole, and it was somewhat similar to those who ate the skin and bones. One night is too short, assuming it is given enough time, the boy from the Lan family I'm afraid there won't even be a bit of flesh and blood left behind."

Shen Huaiyu nodded in agreement.
